I don't use MIRC but I have been getting a Kernel error which is making my physical memory dump and forcing a reboot.

Pretty annoying and virus scan comes up with nothing.

Dunno I am still stuck on it and find that it varies when its going to happen.

So far I have been up for 6 hours with no dump after turning the machine off for abut 8 hours last night, but it is still showing signs of problems.

I think I am just going to reformat since I am a bit overdue for one anyways.
